a newspaper - the print is black when you get it, then it is "read", then it is grey because the ink has run from handling it .......... or grey because you use it to mop up a spill before throwing it away

"... So for a bit of fun this Sunday, I'm laying down a dare. After the
lector reads the Prodigal story from the gospel, said lector or someone else reads this.
A bit of rehearsal may be necessary. Lenten blessings to all.
Ralph Milton"

Feeling footloose and frisky, a feather-brained fellow
Forced his fond father to fork over the farthings.
And flew far to foreign fields
And fabulously frittered his fortune with faithless friends.
Fleeced by his fellows in folly, and facing famine,
He found himself a feed-finder in a filthy farmyard.
Fairly famishing, he fain would've filled his frame,
With foraged food from fodder fragments.
"Fooey, my father's flunkies fair far finer,"
The frazzled fugitive forlornly fumbled, frankly facing facts.
Frustrated by failure, and filled with foreboding,
He fled forthwith to his family.
Falling at his father's feet, he forlornly fumbled, "Father, I've
Flunked, and fruitlessly forfeited family fellowship favor,"
The farsighted father, forestalling further flinching,
Frantically flagged the flunkies.
"Fetch a fatling from the flock and fix a feast."
The fugitive's fault-finding brother frowned
On fickle forgiveness of former folderol.
But the faithful father figured,
"Filial fidelity is fine, but the fugitive is found!
What forbids fervent festivity?
Let the flags be unfurled! Let fanfares flare"
Father's forgiveness formed the foundation
For the former fugitive's future fortitude!"_________________A good sound track will let me relive the movie, I can cry over them as well. Hand me the tissues...please.

Look at each word carefully. You'll kick yourself when you discover the
answer. This is so cool.....

No, it is not that they all have at least 2 double letters...

Let me know if you found the answer - I didn't!

Answer is below!

Answer:

Spoiler:

In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter, place it at
the end of the word, and then spell the word backwards, it will be the
same word. Did you figure it out? No? Then send this to more people and
stump them as well. Then, you'll feel better too.
